it probably says something more about the amount of nasty people around today than all being connected crimes from the same thieves,mix thieving gits with stuff they havent paid for plus not enough yard security and it will be calling them in.
The RDA school am at [millers nook,near bolton] has been cleaned out of its specialist tack mostly a few times not too long ago.
because they were unable to pay to insure gear after the first big theft,it stopped the needed indoor arena from being built as the arena money had to go on all the tack and security.
dont know about the cost side to it,but if the money is there,see about getting CCTV set up on yard,and put up warning signs that CCTV is being used,which is what MN had to do,they also have a lot of big yard dogs as well which will help against the wussier thieves.
